Tf can be incorporated by all glial cells-i.e., microglia, astrocytes, and oligodendroglial precursor cell-and that, acting on microglial cells in vitro, Tf increases microglial proliferation rates and phagocytic capacity. | Transferrin Enhances Microglial Phagocytic Capacity.

our data establish that blood TSAT exerts a critical role in experimental stroke-induced brain damage. In addition, our findings suggest that the protective effect of iron-free transferrin (apotransferrin, ATf) at the neuronal level resides in preventing NMDA-induced HTf uptake and ROS production, which in turn reduces neuronal damage | Iron-loaded transferrin (Tf) is detrimental whereas iron-free Tf confers protection against brain ischemia by modifying blood Tf saturation and subsequent neuronal damage.
